A high-contrast italic serif with a pronounced diagonal stress and crisp transitions from thick stems to hairline exits. The serifs are fine and bracketed, with tapered, calligraphic terminals that give many letters a lively forward motion. Capitals are relatively restrained and open, while lowercase forms show a traditional italic construction with single-storey shapes and flowing joins, creating a smooth reading rhythm. Numerals are similarly slanted and contrasty, with delicate curves and thin entry strokes that keep the set light on its feet.
Well-suited for editorial typography where an italic voice is needed—book and magazine text, pull quotes, captions, and refined subheads. It can also work effectively in premium branding or invitations where a classical, high-contrast italic can convey taste and formality.
The overall tone is refined and literary, suggesting classic book typography and cultured, formal communication. Its sharp hairlines and graceful italics add a sense of sophistication and poise, leaning more toward elegance than ruggedness.
The design appears intended as a conventional, readable italic serif with traditional proportions and a polished, high-contrast finish. Its consistent slant and controlled modulation suggest it is meant to provide a distinguished emphasis style for continuous text as well as an elegant option for display settings.
The italic angle is consistent across caps, lowercase, and figures, and the stroke modulation stays even from glyph to glyph. Counters remain fairly open despite the contrast, helping the face feel airy rather than dense, while the long, tapered terminals add a slightly calligraphic sparkle in larger sizes.
